About

About the History of Child and Spousal Support Unemployment Insurance:
The idea of creating an insurance policy that would protect both parties, and pay child and spousal support payments during periods of unemployment, originated from the family law court bench in San Bernardino County, California in 1976. San Bernardino County Family Law Commissioner Kraig Zappia originally conceived the idea and challenged our founder and CEO Richard Zizian, an insurance company executive and law student of hers at the time, to create this most needed protection. Little did either of them know that it would take nearly 40 years to find the right insurance company partnership with the requisite experience and expertise in insuring unemployment. Commissioner Kraig Zappia was a member of the California State Bar Association, the Bar Associations of San Bernardino and Los Angeles Counties, the American Trial Lawyers Association and the Southern California Defense Council. She taught family law and civil procedure at La Verne University College of School, and was an instructor at the Judges’ College in Sacramento. She was a contributing author for the Los Angeles County Bar Association Symposia on Family Law. Commissioner Zappia originated new methods for determining child support and made significant contributions to the State of California Family Law Continuing Education of the Bar Program. Before joining the San Bernardino law firm of Chase, Rotch-ford, Drukker and Bogust, she was in private practice. The InsuredSupport® Marital Settlement Agreement Insurance (“MSAI”) IncomeAssure® Program is dedicated in her honor and in memoriam.
